Sioux Tipi
The Sioux style tipi is very popular because of the extensive historical information available about the tribe. Many books have been written about the Sioux and Sitting Bull is probably the best known of all American Indian Chiefs. Tipi Etiquette is something fun to read and abide by when you have your friends come over.
Our Sioux tipi leans to the back more than the Crow style and comes standard with an oval shaped door opening. The smoke flaps are longer than those of the Crow tipi resulting in a shorter lace pin and door section, and somewhat larger smoke hole. Tipi Erection Instructions

Crow Tipi
The Crow style tipi is probably the most pleasing design visually. The size of the smoke flaps are beautifully proportioned to the nearly conical shape of the tipi itself. We learned to make this tipi from our close neighbors on the Crow Indian Reservation. Entire families would come into our shop to show us how to make an authentic tipi. We owe a large measure of gratitude to the Real Bird, Sings Good, Old Coyote and other Crow families for their invaluable information and patronage over several generations. Tipi Etiquette is something fun to read and abide by when you have your friends over!!!
The traditional "A" shape door opening is standard on the Crow Tipi. An oval shaped door opening is available at no additional charge for those that specify it in the additional comments box when ordering. Tipi Erection Instructions
